Rayas Pignan Chateauneuf du Pape Réservé 2012

Made from single varietal of Grenache. Second label of arguably the finest producer in the appellation. Organically farmed vines, minimal to no sulfur, bottled unfined and unfiltered, aged in old up to 100 years of age oak barrels. Medium garnet colour, brick hue. Intense complex aroma of tobacco, prunes, smoked meat, plums, licorice, dried strawberries and cherries. Full body, powerful and rich yet not overbearing rather pleasantly restrained with medium acidity and chalky medium tannins
